ATTRACTIONS

THE CORINTH AREA CONVENTION AND VISITORS BUREAU WELCOMES YOU TO HISTORIC CORINTH, MISSISSIPPI. CORINTH HAS AN ABUNDANCE OF ATTRACTIONS TO MEET THE INTERESTS OF BOTH ITS CITIZENS AND GUESTS, RICH IN CIVIL WAR HISTORY, RAILROADS AND CULTURAL HERITAGE.

Visits to any of Corinth’s four museums will enlighten and educate visitors about every facet of the town’s unique history. The Corinth Civil War Interpretative Center, a Civil War trail and an Architectural Tour, which can be walked or driven, will transport you back to a time when soldiers and key figures put their stamp on Corinth and American history.

We invite you to not only step back in time, but also find something new.

Corinth’s history and quintessential small town appeal is complimented by a unique blend of entertainment, dining, shopping and recreational activities.

Entertainment is also part of our story. On any given week, you may find a Blue Grass Pickin’ on Corinth’s Court Square, a symphony in the historic Corinth Coliseum, an abundance of entertaining concerts and events at the Crossroads Arena, or a play at the Crossroads Playhouse.

Our festivals and Green Markets have put Corinth in the national spotlight. Over a dozen events are held annually, drawing crowds from around the corner, and around the world. Check our events calendar for a complete list of festivals and events.

CORINTH CIVIL WAR INTERPRETATIVE CENTERA UNIT OF SHILOH NATIONAL MILITARY PARK

501 W. Linden Street |662.287.9273 |Open 8:30-4:30 daily except Christmas |No admission charge

For six months in 1862, Corinth, a critical railroad junction and second only to Richmond in military importance, captured the full attention of a divided nation. Today, one of the National Park Service’s newest visitor centers interprets the key role of Corinth, Mississippi, in the Civil War’s Western Theater.

The 15,000 sq. ft. facility features interactive exhibits, a multimedia presentation on the Battle of Shiloh, and a video on the Battle of Corinth. The center stands near Battery Robinett, a Union fortification which was an important site of some of the bloodiest fighting during the October 1862 Battle of Corinth. Visitors reach the center by ascending a walkway strewn with bronze replicas that reflect the aftermath of battle. At the building entrance, visitors pass six bronze Civil War soldiers marching into the center at the double-quick.

Full-scale reproductions of earthworks explain the importance of field fortifications. An extensive courtyard exhibit is home to a water feature commemorating one hundred years of American history. The interpretive center houses a seventy-five-seat auditorium, public research library, and a Civil War bookstore.

THE CROSSROADS MUSEUM221 N. Fillmore Street | (662) 287-3120 Tues.-Sat. 10:00-4:00; Sun. 1:00-4:00, Open Mon. by appointment

$5/Adults, $3/Senior Citizens, Military & Students, Kids 16 and under - FREE

Serving as the hub of historical information for the area, the Crossroads Museum invites visitors to view its permanent exhibits dealing with Civil War, Railroad, Aviation, Business/Industry and Pre-History/Archeology. An extensive Coca-Cola collection and exhibit from the Weaver-Williams family, area franchise owners in the area since 1905, is located in one gallery. A second gallery features special rotating exhibits. The Museum also offers a gift shop and the Margaret Greene Rogers Research Library.

VERANDAH/CURLEE HOUSE MUSEUM301 Childs Street | (662) 287-8300

Completed in the spring of 1857, the Verandah House was built for one of the two founders of Corinth, Hamilton Mask. The house is a significant example of Greek Revival architecture.

As a result of the crossroads of the two standard-gauge railroads in Corinth, the area became of prime importance to both the Union and Confederacy. On the evening of April 2, 1862, Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston met with Gen. Braxton Bragg in his bedchambers at the Verandah House to officially sign Order No. 8 to launch the Confederate counter offensive against the Union army that resulted in the Battle of Shiloh, April 6-7, 1862.

Throughout the war, generals from both the Confederacy and the Union quartered in this house. Following the war, the Corinth Female Academy occupied the house for a short period of time. It was then purchased by the William Peyton Curlee, one of the founders of the Curlee Clothing Company. After Mr. Curlee’s death, Mrs. Curlee, a descendent of Daniel Boone, sold the house to Leroy Montgomery Huggins, who raised a large family in the home. In 1921, Shelby Hammond Curlee, oldest son of the previous Curlee owners, bought the house. The descendants of the Curlee family donated the house to the city in 1961.

CORINTH CONTRABAND CAMP902 North Parkway | (662) 287-9273 |Open daily dawn to dusk

Many African Americans who fled Southern plantations and farms seeking freedom and protection found the Union occupied Corinth to be a secure location. Union General Grenville Dodge understood what effect the defection of thousands of African Americans would have on the Confederate War effort. He began to enlist the escaped slaves who came into his lines as teamsters, cooks, and laborers. He actively recruited male refugees, armed them, and placed them in charge of security at the newly organized contraband camp in Corinth.

Under the supervision of Chaplain James M. Alexander of the 66th Illinois Volunteer Infantry, the Corinth camp resembled a small town, complete with a church, commissary, hospital, both frame and log houses, and a street grid with named streets and numbered houses. An American Missionary Association School operated where eager students of all ages sought knowledge day and night.

Today, a portion of this camp has been set aside to commemorate the events which changed the lives of so many people. Bronze figures surround the trail through the camp depicting the lives of these people considered “contraband” of war.

THE RAILROAD CROSSINGView from Trailhead Park located on West Waldron Street

This crossroads of two railroads, the Memphis & Charleston and the Mobile & Ohio, identified Corinth as a strategic location in the Western Theater during the Civil War. These were the only two major standard-gauge railroads in the Confederacy and prompted the Battle of Shiloh as well as the Battle of Corinth. Today the tracks are in the same beds.

CORINTH NATIONAL CEMETERYHorton Street | Open daily dawn to dusk

The Corinth National Cemetery is the final resting place for 1,793 known and 3,895 unknown soldiers representing 273 regiments from fifteen states.

THE COLISEUM THEATER404-408 Taylor Street | (662) 289-2995 |Open for tours by appointment

Benjamin Franklin Liddon, a local banker and civic leader, designed and constructed the Coliseum Theater in 1924 with a capacity of 999 seats. The theater is a showplace of Victorian and Art Deco Design.

JACINTO COURTHOUSELocated off Hwy 356 on County Road 367 | (662) 286-8662 Open May-Sept.: Tue.-Fri. & Sun. 1 p.m.-5 p.m., Sat. 10 a.m.-5 p.m. April, Oct.-Dec.: Sat. 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Sun. 1 p.m.-5 p.m.

Jacinto Courthouse, established in 1836, served as the populous county seat of Tishomingo County. Commissioned in 1852 and completed in 1854, the courthouse emerged as an impressive example of Federal Style architecture. The courthouse includes a park area, walking rails, and RV hook-ups.

CIVIL WAR EARTHWORKS

BATTERY F

Davis Street | Open dawn to dusk

During the summer of 1862, Union forces constructed two arcs of batteries surrounding Corinth from the southeast to the northwest. Still a pristine earthwork, Battery F was overrun during the fierce fighting the first day of the Battle of Corinth.

BATTERY ROBINETT

501 W. Linden Street | Open dawn to dusk

Battery Robinett was built by the Federal Army following the Siege of Corinth and was the site of fierce fighting October 4, 1862, during the 2nd day of the Battle of Corinth. The obelisk pays tribute to Col. William P. Rogers of the 2nd Texas Infantry who showed great bravery trying to climb the walls of the battery to claim it for the Confederacy. Four unknown Civil War soldiers are buried on this site.

THE BEAUREGARD LINE

Approximately 7/8 mi. off N. Polk St., 1.2 mi. north of Shiloh Rd.

This is the site of one of the finest examples of Civil War fortifications to be found. The Beauregard Line was composed of seven miles of earthworks and rifle pits which spanned the east, north, and west perimeters of Corinth. Interpretive panels are located on each of the four observation platforms overlooking portions of the Salient.

UNION EARTHWORKS, May 28, 1862

Hwy 2 & Polk Street

These earthworks are located on a watershed overlooking the west side of Phillips Creek. These were the final fieldworks constructed for the Siege of Corinth.

UNION EARTHWORKS, May 19, 1862

Hwy 2, ½ mile off the road

These earthworks were constructed by the officers assigned to Brig. Gen. Thomas A. Davies’ division. Earthworks lie northwest to southeast line of more than 1,300 ft. in length, 2-4 ft. high, and approximately 10 ft. in width. These works were thrown up by the Army of the Ohio.

WHAT A PLACE TO DINE!Corinth’s many restaurants offer a surprisingly diverse mix of cuisine. Savor international dishes or find an interesting twist on American and regional classics, including our very own claim to fame, the slugburger. We promise, you won’t leave hungry!

SLUG WHAT?! This unique local burger is a deep-fried beef-and-soy meal patty that is dressed, traditionally with onions, pickles and mustard. Slugburgers once sold for a nickel—then called a slug—and a name was born.

Ask a local where the best place is to try a Slugburger, and Borroum’s Drug Store, the White Trolley Café and the Slugburger Café will be top on their list.
